Flat Fire Update

Today’s Activities: Firefighters were again successful today with aerial ignitions burning out to increase fireline depth near Game Lake and in the southeast corner of the fire, generating smoke in both areas. Crews continue to hold and improve fireline along the fire’s edge in between those two areas along the southeastern edge of the Flat Fire, while firefighters on the western side of the fire carefully sought out and cooled any areas of heat. Structure protection crews continued work to record structure information for future protection needs, and work groups including Coos Forest Protective Association crews continued to prepare roads working toward Snow Camp for an alternate containment line. Night shift resources will continue work overnight.
